The area is cordoned off and the national bomb squad is on its way to the scene.

We believe it is a dangerous object but as long as no one touches it, we do not think anything can happen. It has probably been stored there in the storage room, says Magnus Holmström, duty officer at police region East.

The police were at the address in another matter when the object was discovered in the storage room.

We suspect that the arrested person has access to the storage room, says Magnus Holmström.

The residents of the house had not been evacuated by 02:00 and the police do not think there is any danger to the public

We will see what it is if it really turns out to be dangerous, but we must assume that. As soon as the national bomb squad has secured the area, our technicians will go in. Right now it is a frozen situation, says Magnus Holmström.

The arrested man is suspected of a crime against the law on flammable and explosive goods.
